Students of a graduate-level history seminar at the University of Iowa have spent the past semester researching the impact of the 2008 flood and hope their findings help prepare the community for the possibility of similar events in the future.

The group's findings have been compiled into an exhibit - titled "Rapid Waters, Rapid Changes" - which will be on display starting today in the storefront window of Hands Jewelers, 109 E. Washington St. in downtown Iowa City. The display will include photographs and information boards detailing the students' work.
